A method for contour visualization of at least a region of interest in 2D X-ray images

A method for contour visualization of at least a region of interest (6) in 2D X-ray images (15), comprising the steps of: S1: generating a having at least one region of interest (6) 3D raw data set, in which the contour of the region of interest (6) is visible, S2: Automated generating a segmented 3D data set from the 3D raw data set (12), in which the contour is in the at least one region of interest (6) clearly defined, which contains the at least one region of interest (6) generating a 2D fluoroscopy image (15): S3 S4: generating a 2D projection (14) from the segmented 3D data set, which is congruent with the 2D fluoroscopy image (15), S5: Automated determining the contour (17) of the at least one region of interest (6) in the 2D projection (14), and S6: superimposing the contour (17) to the 2D fluoroscopy image (15).
